Lego Ideas: 1 1/2 Transforming Arena Mecha

Hello and welcome to another post from your favorite Blogger, LEGOMATIC! I have a big project ready for unveiling, and it's just as big as my War Machine Hulkbuster, which is my most popular post right now! If you are coming from Lego Ideas, please consider supporting my project on there. Anyway, lets get right on.

Here is Dark Steel, an arena mecha.


The story is that in the future, people decide that the best way to decide on anything is to battle it out, with the winner incapacitating the other mecha. No guns, lasers, missiles, or projectiles of any type. Only brute force allowed. Each city has their own mecha champion, and this one here is Billund, Denmark's current one in the year 2999. 


Here is Dark Steel, who boasts armor covering it's whole body, 10 appendage joints, 12 claw appendages, 360 degree head rotation, wheels on the feet, and an opening chest.


Here's the back view. Hmm, I wonder what those wheels on the back are for?


Oh yeah, did I forget to mention that Dark Steel can fold itself up to be drivable? Useful for transport from competition to competition. Not all fights are for decisions, others are for fun!


Here's the cockpit where the chest opens up. In order to open the chest, you need to turn the head around, pull up a chest panel, and then the whole thing comes up.


Now, remember how I said that no guns are allowed? Well, we found a exception! This is a hologram projector, which can easily confuse any other pilots with duplications of Dark Steel, appearing to attack them. It can be deployed at any time out of the palm of the claw.


Finally, here is the pilot I showed you from the previous post. I told you I was hinting at something!

And that's it. If you haven't done it yet, please consider supporting this project, I love each and every support. To visit me on Lego Ideas, visit this link. Thank you, and see you later!

Starnight - Original Spacecraft

Hello and WELCOME to a new post from Legomatic! Last time we looked at a cutom Slave 1 moc, and today we're showcasing another Moc, The Starnight. If you are coming from Lego Ideas, welcome! If you are coming from Reddit, also welcome! Let's jump right in. A bit of backstory, I had to take apart my favorite Lego set of all time, set 70595 NINJAGO Ultra Stealth Raider for a school project. Once that happened, I couldn't let it's legacy go to shame. To let it live on, I built the Starnight, a space fighter built in the same style, that's sort of a shadow of the original set. The Starnight's dimensions are about 7.25"x 5.5" x 2.5" (in studs, about 23 x 17.5 x 8), so it's pretty small. Inside you can find a spacious cockpit, with enough room to comfortably seat 2 minifigures, 3 if you don't care about comfort. On either side is a 6 stud shooter, something which the original set also had. I might update some o...

Steampunk Sentry and AI! Lego Ideas Idea

Hello and welcome to a post from Legomatic, and today we'll be looking at my first attempt at building in Steampunk, a fantastical concept that is extremely fun to build in. If you are from Lego Ideas, please consider supporting my project, it would mean a lot. I imagine the story behind this, is that in the modern world, an old, fanatical AI developed back when steam engines were used in every device has watched the world develop before him. He is insulted by the gleaming, white, seamless devices and wants to bring back what once was. In order to make his dream reality, he has renovated one of his long dead masters projects into something a little more sinister, to exact his vision upon everyone else, whether they like it or not. Here is the machine, The ST33m 550, a walker armed with dual rodburn cannons. It runs off coal(of course), stored in a internal tank, which then heats rods of metal within to white hot temperatures, which are then expelled out the end, bu...
